Overview

I invite you to walk through more than 500 years of history in the beautiful neighborhood of Belém. We will meet at the Afonso de Albuquerque square to know the monumental and the particular of the history of Portugal through this neighborhood. In its corners we will find hidden stories that will lead us to connect with unexpected events, both inside and outside Portugal, to get to the origins of the delicious pastries of Belém.

We will learn more about the Jerónimos Monastery and the Empire Square, in an unexpected leap between the distant past and the present, ending at the wind rose and the Padrão dos Descubrimentos.

I have a degree in History and specialize in modern history and maritime expeditions, and I will gladly guide you on this tour that you will surely love.
